To connect the R&S VTS to a network 1. Fulfill all prerequisites mentioned above. 2. Make sure that the R&S VTS is switched off. This is the only way to ensure that the network connection is reliably detected and any disruptions during the operation of the R&S VTS are avoided.
The IP addresses 192.168.xxx.yyy are available for use here. xxx and yyy can assume values of 1 to 255. The value for the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. 2. Connect the R&S VTS and the computer with a standard RJ.45 cross-over cable (LAN cable).
The default computer name is composed as follows: <instrument short name>-<serial number> Example: VTS-100104 The serial number consists of 6 digits and is printed on the cabinet of the R&S VTS. Networks without DHCP Server In networks that assign fixed IP addresses, the network administrator usually config- ures the network card.
R&S Setting Up Remote Operation To enable data transfer or to allow access to the R&S VTS, define exceptions using the Windows 7 Start menu. For details refer to the Windows 7 documentation or contact your network administrator for support.

3.10.2.1 LAN Interface The LAN (local area network) interface of the R&S VTS is based on TCP/IP and con- sists of a connector, a network interface card and protocols. Connect the computer and the R&S VTS to a common network with TCP/IP network protocol.
HiSLIP data is sent to the device using the "fire and forget" method with immediate return. Thus, a successful return of a VISA operation such as viWrite() does not guarantee that the R&S VTS has finished or started the requested command, but is delivered to the TCP/IP buffers.
To switch to manual operation 1. Wait until command processing is completed. Otherwise the R&S VTS returns to remote control immediately. 2. The R&S VTS remains in the remote state until you perform one of the following actions. ● Send the >L interface command (go to local).

Some command systems permit certain mnemonics to be optionally inserted into the header or omitted. These mnemonics are marked by square brackets in this manual. The R&S VTS must recognize the long command to comply with the SCPI standard. Some commands are considerably shortened by omitting optional mnemonics.

® Remote Control Basics R&S SCPI Command Syntax Example: SOURce:IQCoder:DVBT:DATA ON;:SOURce:IQCoder:DVBT:FFT:MODE M2K This command line is represented in its full length and contains 2 commands separa- ted from each other by the semicolon. Both commands are part of the SOURce com- mand system, IQCODER, DVBT subsystem, that means they have 3 common levels.
Use one of commands in Table 13-1 to synchronize controller and R&S VTS. All three commands cause a certain action only to be carried out after the hardware has been set and has settled. By suitable programming, the controller can be forced to wait for the respective action to occur.
The event status register (ESR) which is also defined in IEEE 488.2 with the asso- ciated mask register standard event status enable (ESE). ● STATus:OPERation and STATus:QUEStionable which are defined by SCPI and contain detailed information on the R&S VTS. User Manual 2116.1228.02 ─ 14...
® Remote Control Basics R&S Status Reporting System The individual status flag (IST), like the SRQ, combines the entire instrument status in a single bit. The parallel poll enable register (PPE) fulfills the same function for the IST flag as the SRE for the service request. The output buffer contains the messages the instrument returns to the controller.
Page 471
Indicates whether an event has occurred since the last reading, it is the "memory" of the CONDition part. It only indicates events passed on by the transition filters. It is permanently updated by the R&S VTS. This part is read-only. Reading the register clears it. This part is often equated with the entire register.
® Remote Control Basics R&S Status Reporting System Sum bit Is obtained from the EVENt and ENABle part for each register. The result is entered into a bit of the CONDition part of the higher-order register. The instrument automatically generates the sum bit for each register. Thus an event can lead to a service request throughout all levels of the hierarchy.
Page 473
The bit is set if an EVENt bit is set in the OPERation status register and the associ- ated ENABle bit is set to 1. A set bit indicates that the R&S VTS is just performing an action. The type of action can be queried by polling the OPERation status register.
Page 474
Meaning Query error This bit is set if either the controller wants to read data from the R&S VTS without hav- ing sent a query, or if it does not fetch requested data and sends new instructions to the R&S VTS instead. The cause is often a query which is faulty and hence cannot be executed.
After its settings have been completed, the instrument generates an SRQ. The SRQ is the only possibility for the R&S VTS to become active on its own. Each controller program should set the R&S VTS such that a service request is initiated in the case of malfunction.
Page 476
® Remote Control Basics R&S Status Reporting System Parallel poll Using a single command, the controller requests up to eight instruments to transmit one bit of information each on the data lines, that means to set the data line allocated to each instrument to a logical "0"...
® Remote Control Basics R&S General Programming Recommendations 13.3.5 Reset Values of the Status Reporting Systems The following table contains the different commands and events causing the status reporting system to be reset. With the exception of *RST and SYSTem:PRESet, no command influences the functional instrument settings.
Page 478
® Remote Control Basics R&S General Programming Recommendations adapted. Therefore, control programs should always define an initial instrument status (e.g. using the *RST command) and then implement the required settings. Command sequence As a general rule, send commands and queries in different program messages. Other- wise, the result of the query may vary depending on which operation is performed first (see also Preventing Overlapping Execution).
Notation 14 Remote Command Reference This chapter describes all remote control commands of the R&S VTS. For each appli- cation, the commands are first listed for quick access, followed by a description of each command. An alphabetic list of all commands is given at the end of the manual.
[<module slot>] with <module slot> = L1 Make sure that the string parameters match the installed options of the remote control- led R&S VTS. Example: ROUTe<hw>:HDMI:MODule:SELect[?] "HDMI [L1]" Selects the HDMI CTS RX/TX 600 MHz module (R&S VT-B2362) in slot L1 as input.
